Fixing a wobbly 4x4 fender, bdp Garage Episode 19

I modified the rear wheel arch on my 1971 chevy K5 blazer to fit larger off road tires. So as I work on welding in the patched portion, I need to also find a way to keep it from wobbling around since the stock fender support was removed. I designed a very simple metal bracket, welded in place and secured it with a bolt on the lower roll cage support.
